Recently described as an "old school trail, now defunct and dilapitaded," the SRAM Canadian Open Enduro presented by Specialized has brought this “Sleeping Beauty” back to life. Through the handiwork of Seb Kemp, Jerome David and Trail Network Solutions, Crazy Train has been refurbished, rerouted and will have riders “going off the rails.”

 Large tree blew up on the trail in the top half. Probably could be moved by a couple people with 30 min to spare. Not sure if any tools are needed.
